Sequel to ‘The L Word’ is in the works!

I know there are going to be so many fans deliriously happy about this.

Over the years I have heard from so many fans of The L Word who have never lost hope the show would somehow be revived.

Well, looks like it’s happening.

Showtime is developing a sequel to the drama which revolved around a group of lesbians in West Hollywood and their friends, family and lovers.

Deadline Hollywood reports that three of the original series’ lead cast members, Jennifer Beals, who played Bette, Kate Moennig (Shane) and Leisha Hailey (Alice), are expected to come on as executive producers on the sequel and, if the project moves forward, they would appear on the series, with their characters serving as a bridge between the original and the new show.

The original series premiered in 2004 and ran for six seasons.

It was created by Ilene Chaiken who will serve as an executive producer on the sequel but won’t have hands-on involvement as she serves as executive producer/showrunner on Fox’s Empire.
